The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal ‎#600

600. And Let Our Bodies Part

1 And let our bodies part,
To different climes repair;
Inseparably joined in heart
The friends of Jesus are.

2 O let us still proceed
In Jesus’ work below;
And, following our triumphant Head,
To further conquests go!

3 The vineyard of the Lord
Before His laborers lies;
And lo! we see the vast reward
Which waits us in the skies.

4 O let our heart and mind
Continually ascend,
That haven of repose to find,
Where all our labors end.

5 When all our toils are o’er,
Our suffering the our pain!
Who meet on that eternal shore
Shall never part again.

AMEN.
